    How are all ya'll doing.I have been driving for five years,but its been locally.I'm trying to get a job otr.I know that most companys won't hire a felon i was convicted a little over two years ago.What i'm trying to get to is there any companys out there that would give me the chance to prove myself. The judicial system is so one sided.I have 1 felony and it has ruined my life as far as a career.Does anyone know a o/o that will give me a chance i'm really not a bad person it was the wrong place wrong time type of thing.If anyone knows someone are them themselves would give me a chance please let me know. THANKS,GOD BLESS and DRIVE SAFE!!!!!!!!!!

    You can look in Fleetdirectory.com and find the companies the will hire people with felonies. Not every company bans felonies. You just have to get out there and look.
